Asus N53SN-SZ139V Help me out please!!

[oldnapalm]

It's exaclty like the one in the example (from an Asus N53JQ).

You can use the device name, just make sure the method _DSM is inserted in the correct device

into device label WLAN insert
begin
Method (_DSM, 4, NotSerialized)\n
{\n
   Store (Package (0x0C)\n
       {\n
           "AAPL,slot-name", \n
           Buffer (0x08)\n
           {\n
               "AirPort"\n
           }, \n
           "device-id", \n
           Unicode ("*"), \n
           "device_type", \n
           Buffer (0x08)\n
           {\n
               "AirPort"\n
           }, \n
           "model", \n
           Buffer (0x34)\n
           {\n
               "Atheros 9285 8802.11 b/g/n Wireless Network Adapter"\n
           }, \n
           "subsystem-id", \n
           Buffer (0x04)\n
           {\n
               0x8F, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00\n
           }, \n
           "subsystem-vendor-id", \n
           Buffer (0x04)\n
           {\n
               0x6B, 0x10, 0x00, 0x00\n
           }\n
       }, Local0)\n
   DTGP (Arg0, Arg1, Arg2, Arg3, RefOf (Local0))\n
   Return (Local0)\n

can you explain what you mean by saying You can use the device name, just make sure the method _DSM is inserted in the correct device?? thank u again buddy..

when i did the dsdt patch with what u told me i was no enable to boot into the os by saying this when i booted it take long like 2mins and when it should boot to the welcome screen its stay the with a blue screen. so maybe i did something wrong but i notice that on the laptop the wifi light when on so thats a good sign so now im goin to restore the last working dsdt to boot. and wait for you.

[oldnapalm]

Look at the first line, it defines where the code is inserted

into device [color=#FF0000]name_adr 0x00 parent_adr 0x001C0001[/color] insert
into device [color=#FF0000]label WLAN[/color] insert

 

Apply the patch, attach the resulting file and I will take a look.

[fariel23]

sorry my friend but i dont get it can u please provide me de patch text to insert it cause i try this

into device name_adr 0x00 parent_adr 0x001C0001 insert

into device label WLAN insert

begin

Use the patch in this post

Try to understand what the patch does, it's pretty simple.

The patches look fine.

You don't need the LPC patch (I didn't notice your System Info screenshot, the original ID is 0x1c49) but that should not be the problem.

Patches that you can always use are IRQs and RTC

http://Olarila.com/Patches/IRQs.txt

http://Olarila.com/Patches/RTC.txt

Most of these patches can be used in your case

http://Olarila.com/Patches/Notebook%20Core%20i%20Sandy%20Bridge/

About the problem when you apply the Atheros patch, try using a different SMboardproduct in smbios.plist, I had a similar problem when I didn't have this key in SMBIOS, and there are reports of problems with some values, so I think it's worth a try

Edit: your file is wrong, the _DSM is inside RP02, it must be inside WLAN device. Maybe you used the old patch that was wrong?

Remove _DSM from RP02

into method label _DSM parent_adr 0x001C0001 remove_entry

 

Then apply the new patch.

idid exact what u say on the chat and again it show a blue screen .

[fariel23]

here is the new dsdt

dsdt.zip

[oldnapalm]

Now the Atheros patch is correct, it should work. Maybe there's something else wrong.

Try to start over, remove dsdt.aml from / or /Extra, reboot and apply the patches again. Apply also the other "generic" patches (IRQs and RTC). You don't need the LPC patch, but you may need other patches from Notebook Core i Sandy Bridge folder.

If it still doesn't work I would try other SMBIOS values, even if it doesn't match your chipset and CPU, just to eliminate the possibility.

[fariel23]

here is the new dsdt

New DSDT.zip

[oldnapalm]

It looks fine, maybe your card just doesn't work with this patch.

You can try a modified kext like this

http://www.insanelymac.com/forum/index.php?s=&showtopic=250252&view=findpost&p=1667299

Read other posts in that topic, there are some issues related to Apple80211Monitor.bundle and SMboardproduct.

[fariel23]

i prepare a usb stick with extra folder incl. my dsdt.aml with the all the patches we talk about incl. the atheros patch. so when i boot to the usbstick it boot fines to the installion screen and suprice the wifi is there i can connect so it seems to work BUT when i Finnish the instalion and boot back i get the welcome screen i fill everything but it says creating accounts and the it keep loading back the welcome screen again and again

so what im doing is the following: i boot through the usb stick then format the driver then boot back on windows and trough mac drive i copy the extra to the mac partition and then install lion using the usb stick as i told u via the setup screen i can see the wifi and can connect but as soon i reboot i'm stuck refilling the welcome setup screen

as soon i get a cam i will shoot a video for u to see whats going on...

thank u very much for your time!!!!

[oldnapalm]

Did you erase the partition before installing? Other people had this problem, but after a new install it just worked.

You can try booting with -s (single user)

mount -uw /
touch /var/db/.AppleSetupDone
exit

[fariel23]

here is the video to see i cant connect

This topic mentions 0x002b168c in the title

http://osx86.co/f36/atheros-ar9285-0x002b168c-fix-for-snow-leopard-t6662/

The patch is almost the same you are using, but it has Buffer () {0x2A, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00} for device-id, instead of Unicode ("*") like you are using. Maybe faking the 2a ID makes 2b cards work better, you can try that.
